Marvellous Miss Marple. 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.
There have been many Miss Marples, throughout the time since Agatha Christie first fictionalised the character. Stage, films and television have all been vehicles for the portrayal of the elderly sleuth. Each of the actresses, portraying the venerable character, will have their champions of course. In my time, there have been three main portrayals of Christie's competent and cognitive character. Margaret Rutherford played a slightly 'dotty' version excellently. Lately, we have had Geraldine McEwan playing the part superbly well. However, my favourite has always been Joan Hickson's portrayal. Hickson manages, excellently, to maintain the elderly and slightly uncertain character that I feel Christie intended. However, her occasional dithering doesn't deter her from displaying her devilishly sharp wits, when it comes to the 'crunch'! A true delight to view. The Series is excellent value.
Editorial Review:
Return to post-war England for mystery and a cup of tea with Agatha Christie’s most popular creation. The consummate prim and proper crime-fighting spinster, Miss Jane Marple sets down her knitting needles to unwind the most ingenious crimes. As she travels from city to countryside and even the Bahamas, murders, missing bodies and haunted dreams have a habit of falling across Miss Marple’s path--which is precisely when, "tail up and head down," the beloved aunt and godmother goes into action. Digitally re-mastered and faithfully adapted from Agatha Christie’s best-selling novels, THE CLASSIC MYSTERIES COLLECTION features Joan Hickson (Christie’s personal choice to play the spinster sleuth) in over fifteen hours of suspense, misdirection, rich period detail, and the cleverest solutions imaginable. DVD Features: Complete Index of all Miss Marple Stories; Agatha Christie Bio; Joan Hickson Biography/Filmography; Interactive Menus; Scene Selection

Dreadful 1 out of 5 stars.
37 of 43 people found this review helpful.
I was pleased to see a new "supersized" history of WWII box set come to DVD, and being a superfan of this subject bought it. I wasn't expecting a lot of new footage but I thought perhaps a new perspective would be refreshing.
I'm afraid disappointed is an understatement in describing how I felt while watching it... "War Chronicles" (Mort Zimmerman) was never my favorite of the WWII documentaries, and this box set is built entirely on these old reels.
Patrick O'Neal's voice drones on like the engines of a tired old bomber on a long run to the heart of Germany. You hear little else but his narration over the canned sound effects through the entire series.
I was particularly amazed at the lack of footage devoted to England and the Battle of Britain. Literally a couple of minutes!
A far better choice would be the "BBC History of World War II", The "Definitive History of WWII" (Brentwood), "Visions of War" (Southern Star/IMAVision), or "The World at War" box sets.
If you still wish to have this box set, there will be plenty of very slightly used copies available very cheap, very soon!

This is on Target (+) 5 out of 5 stars.
4 of 5 people found this review helpful.
FInally something for the whole family. THe Kids will enjoy the action, violence and computer graphics. Mother's will salivate at the aged photographs of handsome young men; knights of a modern age dueling for some greater cause than themselves. Father's will focus on the strategy and the individual specs of the planes all done in the instantly intuitive style of a video game game player select screen. And finally Grandpa War Veteran will shake violently at the mere color imagery of Stukas and Zeros coming at the screen, the first color images of these aircraft in blazing combat maneuvers that have ever been by seen like this since the actual war..
It's got all the elements, drama, historical accuracy coupled with the slick educational value to anyone who ever wondered about the aerial dogfights of long ago. The only educational movie series I have ever watched and enjoyed since the future is wild or alien planet.

Entertaining 4 out of 5 stars.
4 of 5 people found this review helpful.
I got this for my husband for a Christmas gift. It is pretty entertaining. It is mostly just "fluff" T.V., but watching some of these guys whine and cry cracks me up. The ice road itself is pretty amazing. When it starts melting, I don't know how these guys keep driving on it to get in their last loads... Overall, I would recommend it.
Editorial Review:
For the past several decades, two months out of every year, truckers in the Canadian tundra carry vital equipment to remote outposts located hundreds of miles north. The mission is to transport thousands of loads before the road disappears.
Continuing this successful series, our truckers will venture to a new road - one that is actually located inside the Arctic Circle. The road is comprised of hills that resemble rollercoasters, journeys over ice, and even includes a 120-mile stretch over open ocean. Over the course of the season, the series will examine the building of the ice road (which includes an ice bridge), and will also follow road maintenance crews as they struggle to keep the road safe and operable in sub zero temperatures.
It is a race against the elements, against time, and against each other. The series will continue to examine this time honored profession that dates back almost a century, often through generations of families.

such a deal...does GENE know? 5 out of 5 stars.
3 of 3 people found this review helpful.
I just picked this set up...and for well under $20!!
4 DVDs, 28 hilarious episodes, 3 very nice bonus features at nearly a half hour each for over 11 hours of fun ...just about a buck an hour...I can't believe Gene didn't blow a valve when he heard this price!
For those who haven't seen the show I strongly suggest viewing from the first season onward....its not a necessity but its a fun story arc. If I was being picky I'd have to say that it is of course becoming a tad repetitive but it really comes down to if you like the family and enjoy spending a half hour with them at a time...and I do. I actually wasn't a KISS fan before my girlfriend kept nagging me about the show and now I am as big a fan as she. You do NOT need to be a KISS fan or know their music to enjoy the show..and I must say that unlike the Osbournes...these are people not fighting abuse and being abusive but the oddity is that they are very normal and in fact in many ways an ideal family...sort of a modern day Nelson family!
the production values are still very high...so if you've enjoyed the other seasons...there should be no reason to hold back..I cant' imagine this being much cheaper...
Editorial Review:
Legendary rock star Gene Simmons and his unconventional family are back and better than ever for an all-new season of the A&E hit Real-Life series Gene Simmons Family Jewels.

From Hawaii to Mexico, follow the Simmons-Tweed clan as they set out to prove, yet again, why they are the most non-traditional, traditional family in America.

The documentary is driven by the key personalities of the First, Second and Third Crusades, the popes, kings, sultans and knights who, in the name of God, ruthlessly fought for land and power. Experience the murder, treachery, and bloodshed of this legendary chapter of history throuth the eyes of key historical figures such as Richard the Lionheart and Saladin, King Louis VII and Nur al-Din. With breath-taking CGI-enhanced visuals, heart-pounding reenactments, and stunning footage from rarely-seen locations THE CRUSADES: CRESCENT & THE CROSS brings the first three Crusades alive for a new generation in conflict.
